2035 S3SL Free Agency Round 1: Now until 4/17 at 9 PM EST

[missionhockey21]

First off, apologies on the delay. If I didn't believe it was in the best interest of the league, I wouldn't have done it. If I knew how long it would take, I might have had lower expectations on what I needed to start though too. What's done is done though and we have 28 GM's ready to go. Free agency will be typical of years past, but if you are new, please refer below.

Start sending your offers in now! I will send out a group PM too, just to ensure everyone is aware that FA is open and round one is on until Sunday night.

Good luck.

Length: 10 Days (new)

Notes: Players may not like your team for whatever reason. If you message me with enough time ahead of the deadline, you will receive a reply from me letting you know if any offers didn't go through for whatever reason so you can offer to someone else. I can not withdraw offers on the same day (round) they were made, so if you send it in and the player does not have a problem with your team, it's entered for the round. Nor can you increase an offer made during the same round, in other words you can only make one offer to a player during each round. And if you have more offers than cash, well, that's your fault.

All offers are entered and the bidding is blind. The player chooses his team essentially. Sometimes players will ignore offers from winning teams with tons of cash, sometimes they will take a lesser offer, it is unpredictable just like the MLB. This is why it's best to get your offers in early in case a certain player or two will not listen to your team's offers.

I've decided against any major limitations on offers other than all teams are limited to a max of 40 million dollars to spend. Obviously this only applies to teams with 40 or more million dollars to spend on free agents. And if you offered player x 10 million to lower your available total to 30 million, if he signed elsewhere you can offer that 10 million again to someone else, but if he signed with you your total left to offer is 30 million. Make your offers in the following format for my ease

Offer Format:
Team offers Position Player x amount of years for x amount of cash per year
Florida Marlins offer 3B Joe Crede 5 years at 5 mil per
Florida Marlins offer SP Josh Beckett 5 years at 10 mil per
(Included in parenthesis in subsequent rounds any players that signed with you so it is known to me easily)
_____________________________
Total offers: 15 million (10+5, length of the contract does not matter)


If anyone has any questions, post here and I am sure someone will help you out. And good luck.

Round 2 will be 10 days as well.
